Out & about, Rotorua , New Zealand

[Rusty's Uncle]

Been busy, busy here over the last two weeks but I always look out for interesting motors when I am here. Seen things like Ford Escort, Cortina and Granadas , Morris Marina etc in everyday use. Could not help noticing the rear end of a Mk 1 Cortina body shell outside an industrial unit. Stopped to take a pic and it seems that the only place to do full body shell dipping in NZ is located here. They also had a Mk1 Escort shell and a beast of a '69 Mustang shell that was being prepped for as a race car for one of the top kiwi drivers. Fiats are thin on the ground here but I have spotted two early Pandas in town.

Spotted loads of good old motors now having got around. Checked out a motor museum in Hamilton today.

Has it been dumped there, or has it got an owner. If so, make them an offer and ship it over.

I think the shipping might be more than the parts are worth. There is a VW shop in town I came across.

Sad sight this week in town. A crash on a roundabout. One of the vehicles was an original Vauxhall HA pick up . I do not even remember seeing one in the UK.
